Web hosting?

Schizophonic · 20 Oct 2011 at 21:39

Currently my website www.kenghaywong.co.uk is about to expire. I dont want to really folk out the £140 they are asking for a renewal of service.

As I did not originally set this up, any advice on what hosting service I can use?

I'm not sure what databases I need for my site, at the moment I've got a wordpress but is it going to be easy to copy my stuff of the hosting and migrate it across?

I know my web hosting is about to expire but my domain is registered for 2 years (so I'm told by my original developer) . At the the moment my hosting is with http://www.stylistichosting.com/home/index.html and logging onto their cpanel (?) my domain mapped to them...

Problem is, my developer has done a runner. Was a freelancer, didn't get as many jobs as need and had to find a way to sustain himself and got a full time job and forgot about me. Basically bs his way to me. I'll have a chat with stylistic hosting and ask not to pay as much.

In the mean time, what else will I need to back up? Done a backup of my website, taken my word press backup. Don't know how to back up or transfer databases if it comes to the time.
